D.L. Moffitt is a prevention financing lead and human services strategist helping child welfare leaders co-build the fiscal, relational, and implementation infrastructure for family well-being. At Foster America, he supports Fiscal Leadership Circle fellows and jurisdictions in using existing financing pathways to build practical prevention strategies that reduce reliance on placement, strengthen community-based supports, and move resources upstream. His work builds on prior experience as an implementation scientist with the Colorado Department of Human Services. Mentored by Don Winstead, D.L. is grounded in capacity-building for systems change and a deep commitment to co-creating a future where every family can access early support to thrive.
He holds degrees in Cultural History from George Mason University and Education Policy from Columbia University. Outside of work, D.L. is an avid traveler, mentor, dancer, and photographer.
In 2026, Foster America marks a decade of building an alternative to a child welfare system rooted in crisis—and proving that families thrive when support comes early, with dignity, and led by community.
